| partners | | Jason wanted to get out early and get in a quick hike in the Goldfields. We started off with lofty goals of doing a 6 mile loop, but we opted to cut it short and just hiked to the Checkmate Arch. We started out from Willow Creek TH and hiked up Willow Springs/Javalina Mine crossover and took the Javalina Mine trail towards the drainage under the arch.
It felt hot, even at 6am. I will be so ready when this heat finally subsides. We made it to the base of the arch and Jason wasn't feeling it, so I hiked up to visit this interesting arch/stack-o-rocks. After a couple of photos, I hiked back down. We decided to hike back up the same drainage and picked up the Javalina Mine Trail towards the road that runs back to Willow Creek wash.
An easy hike, but I got in a little elevation and got to re-visit a cool geological formation. |
